Kaitlyn was great with my cat Alpha for a couple drop-in when I was out of town for the weekend. He's very social and she gave him lots of attention so that he wasn't as lonely while I was out. I also got detailed updates from her visits.

Anne is extremely trustworthy and has been taking care of my pets for years. In addition to basic care, she plays with them if time allows, medicates as needed, and lets me know if she observes any unusual behavior. I'm very comfortable with my pets in her care!

Lauren is amazing. Literally stop looking for other Rovers, and hire Lauren. She is incredibly sweet, helpful, flexible, and so friendly with my cats. Took tons of pictures, provided videos, and lots of detailed reports on each visit. Top tier communication and was able to help me out on short notice, AND during the holidays. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience with hang someone check-in on my cats while I was away. Thank you Lauren!!!

Hannah was excellent with our 3 dachshund dogs during our vacation. She came and met them before our trip to meet them and to get a feel for our babies and home. She communicated frequently with us and is great at listening to everything we told her about there personalities. I was concerned that one of our puppies would not be too friendly with a stranger and I left there snacks outside for her to come in with. That helped so much!! I would most definitely recommend Hannah to everyone wanting to ensure your fur babies are well cared for while you are away!!!

Jessie was absolutely incredible, stopping in every day for a week to play with and take care of our two cats! She gave thoughtful updates and lots of pictures, which we really appreciated. Her communication was great and you can tell she’s very detailed oriented. She even let us know our smoke alarm battery was dying and we were able to contact maintenance to get it fixed while we were away. I highly recommend booking her for a reliable sitter!!

About: I grew up with a loving (and clingly) yellow lab in the house. If you couldn't tell from my photo gallery, he's sort of the center of my universe. Over weekends, while my parents were out of town, I would be in charge of taking care of him: taking him out, feeding him, walking him, putting him to bed, and giving him the attention he deserves. I still watch my dog while my parents are away or if he needs to visit Washington, D.C., and I have pet-sat for friends and colleagues from school. I've accrued six months of experience pet-sitting as an in-house sitter. I love hanging out with animals, so I am excited to befriend your pet! I currently work part-time in the evenings, so I will be able to make plenty of time with your pet! I have a flexible schedule that I can accommodate to you and your pet's needs. I will always coordinate with your schedule before leaving the house for an extended period of time. I am mindful of both the pets and the home in which I'm staying for the duration of my care. I will keep your home nice and bond with your pet at the same time! Happy to help with basic house-sitting needs like collecting mail and cleaning up after myself and your pet.

Hannah took wonderful care of our medium-sized dog over the Fourth of July weekend. She was flexible, communicative, and proactive throughout the stay, especially when helping us monitor how our dog was handling the heat and the fireworks. When our return flights were unexpectedly canceled, she didn’t hesitate to extend the booking, which was a big help and peace of mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Hannah again and highly recommend her!

About: I have been passionately caring for dogs since high school, gaining hands in experience with pups of all breeds, sizes and temperaments. Having had multiple family dogs has made me comfortable and taught me foundations for compassionate pet care. In college I completed service dog training from puppies to graduation! I am equipped with higher leveled handling skills, deep patience, and the ability to manage complex behavioral needs, reactivity, or high-energy dogs. Whether your dog requires structured behavioral reinforcement, gentle senior care, or just a fun, safe, and reliable companion while you’re away, I am completely comfortable adapting to their unique needs. I treat every dog with the same dedication and professional care as a working dog, while making sure they get all the love and belly rubs of a family pet. I am currently working part-time remotely so my schedule stays pretty flexible. There are certain evenings that I would be unavailable for a different job, but will be blocked out prior. When caring for dogs, you can expect a calm, structured and highly attentive approach tailored specifically to your dogs, age, energy and temperament. Whether your pup thrives on active exercise or needs gentle, low stress, companionship, I prioritize safety, clear boundaries and positive reinforcement during every interaction my background and service dog training means I naturally reinforced leash manners, provide mental enrichment and remain hyper attentive to dog body language to ensure a secure stress-free experience after every visit or stay you will receive a detailed update covering exercise, bathroom, habits, and high-quality photos showing your dog, happy and comfortable For feline clients, my care centers entirely on patient routine and respecting their individual comfort levels. I always let each cat set the pace offering lively playtime with Juan toys for social kitties or quiet, not intrusive companionship for those who are shy or cautious, having managed delicate environmental transitions, and introductions. I focus on minimizing stress, maintaining feeding and lit routine, routines and closely observing subtle shifts in behavior or appetite. You can rely on consistent detail check-in with daily photos, so you have complete peace of mind that your cat unique needs and boundaries are fully honored while you are away.

We have worked with Sarah twice now and feel really lucky to have found a pet sitter who is so reliable. Our cat also seems to really like her. (She doesn't purr for just anybody). Definitely recommend her if you're looking for pet help while you're away. And we will certainly be seeking her out again. Thanks, Sarah!
